Roger Waters is not a silly man.

did the dudechick from the scrubs make this meme?

"illegal activities" doesn't always mean buying crack cocaine, or whatever. depending on where you live it can mean:

accessing wikipedia, forming communities, performing union activities...

in other words, the ruling class of your country decides something being threatening their power, and that becomes an illegal activity.

of course everyone can be tracked. also everyone is not julian assange, so i'm not so worried about using tor for "illegal activities".

"What will be the consequences of non-compliance?

Fines: of up to 10% of the company’s total worldwide annual turnover, or up to 20% in the event of repeated infringements"

it's a tough pill to swallow.

if you mean demands of eu then they're all clear:

https://digital-markets-act.ec.europa.eu/about-dma_en

they have 5 months to prove that it's not a gatekeeping service, if they cannot do that then it will be added to the list. the list gets updated every 6 months.

you're not exactly saying the thing on the meme, but god, the line is awfully thin. capitalism IS the unfathomably rich.

politicians are doing exactly what they're there for: protecting the interets of the unfathomably rich.

that little boy's factories are a human meat grinder compared to his competitors'.

that little boy's shitty social media revamp is the biggest reason queer people are being doxxed.

that little boy decided whether or not the us army could kill more efficiently in ukraine.

every little fuckup he does should be amplified, not ignored, so that people start to turn on him.

it's true though

do you think cia was hyping up ussr? do you think this report dated 1983 is talking about the situation in 1932?

it's baffling to me that voting (or democracy for that matter) for a lot of people means, electing a person every 4-5 years and expecting them to be "good" leaders.

if the process isn't directly tied to accountability at all times, how is that democracy? you elect lesser of many evils (in most places you won't even have more than 2 "eligible" candidates) and that's it?

whatever voting system you have, it will not solve this systemic problem.

My first point was "it's obscenely overpriced". So let's dissect that:

• Quadcore CPU (4x1.5 GHz Cortex-A53)
• 3 GiB ram
• 32 GiB storage
• 720x1440 px resolution.

That's almost worse than my 2015 idol3 which has an octa-core CPU. And it's freakin' $1.299!!

On the other hand let's look at Shift6MQ:

• Octacore CPU (4x2.8 + 4x1.7GHz)
• 8 GiB ram
• 128 GiB storage
• 1080x2160 px resolution.

And it's €577 (which makes $627) which is less than half of what Librem 5 goes for. Would you call Librem 5 overpriced now?

You somewhat agree with my third point but add that Purism develops software for mobile Linux (which I don't deny) and say that running pmOS would be less useful without it (which I don't agree). There's Plasma Mobile, there's SXMO (which I love the most) and lately even Gnome Mobile feels more snappy than Phosh. FOSS always finds a way.

Let's talk about my second point. I said that "this cultist shit doesn't make it any better" referring to the Louis Rossmann video. If you've ever watched the video, you would've seen that there's a real person with a real problem and being stonewalled by Purism (which is not a singular incident by the way, I have seen numerous people saying the same shit). The thing you should've done would be to sympathize with that customer instead of coping for the company (if you're not the person that wrote the e-mail, of course). But here you are debatelording with semantics. Not on its payroll? What the fuck does that even mean? Why would I care about who's on whose payroll? I care about the community.

thanks for the correction, i don't what i was thinking while writing that. i guess i couldn't decide floating or stacking for wayfire so the whole thing broke down :)

stacking wm -> wayfire

tiling wm -> sway [corrected, i don't know what was going through my mind]

terminal emulator -> alacritty or foot

it's obscenely over priced and this cultist shit doesn't make it any better. to me shift mq6 is miles better.

and i almost forgot, didn't they try to pull "copying free software verbatim and slapping a different logo on it"? for a whole group of software?

yeah i'm on 3060ti and wayfire, it's been good for quite a while now.

second this

and it is usually one time, unless you plan to add or remove features

you don't update your system? this is what turned me away from gentoo. i setup my system just the way i wanted but everytime you upgrade you re-compile everything again and again. and some of those updates require some tinkering.
